woman vs men

It is reported that women display significantly greater activity in the affect regulating structure than men do during PET scan. The data indicate gender differences in empathic styles between sexes (Schore, 2001).Recent research shows that impaired orbitofrontal corelates to autism, schizophrenia, mania, unipolar depression, phobic states, posttraumatic stress disorder, drug addiction, alcoholism, and borderline and psychopathic personality disorders (Schore, 2001).Early traumatic experience of a baby will result in storing such negative experiences into implicit or procedural memory. It will later manifest in rapid emotional activiation and instability, reflect hyperarousal, and subsequent rapid escalation of intense nagative affect, self disorganized, explosively and implosively (Schore, 2001)
